Can you open the gate from either side? I plan on having the gate open out, so the large lever would be on the inside.

Yes, you can open the gate from either side; that's the whole point of this latch. I don't know why they didn't mention it in the description.
10774
Yes you can open from either side, short lever on one side, long on the other.

It is a little hard to figure out but yes, that is the way mine works also. If you are standing in front of the gate, the post that you mount it on is on the right and my gate swings toward me as it opens and the long lever is to the inside. Be sure to nail your fence board to the post before you mount the latch or your gate will not close evenly.

It's easier from the larger side, but yes, you can open the door from both sides

Yes that is how my gate is designed. It will work fine! Be careful not to loose the springs that come with it. Very good latch that should last outlast the gate.

Yes the direction the door opens can be changed. Door is designed to move the hinges and handle to the opposite side.

Yes you can. Its actually a hinged door that can open either way, but you can also just remove it exposing the bays and filters.

No, this opens both ways as well as has the ability to lock on either side. Make sure the tenant has both sides unlocked as you can adjust the red and green tabs to block access one way and/or the other.

Yes, the door can be hinged and opened from either side. Very simple to do. This is our second Whynter wine cooler. Gave the first to a family member. Very please with this unit.

when you open as you pull lever up you have to lift the gate door(where your holding lever up) at the same time

The post portion of the lock must be installed on the gate on the outward swinging side. It might be strange for that to be on the outside, but you can do it because once it is locked, you need a key to unlock it from either side.t There is no way to unlock it without a key.

The gate can be opened one handed, but you need to push a lever and pull up at the same time. My father in law is elderly and has had a few surgeries on his wrist and was able to open it no problem (after being shown how to use it lol) We absolutely love this gate. Hope this helps.

Yes you can. It works very easily. It is a very light metal-type gate. I carry my 6 yr old granddaughter through it all the time. You just pull up on the lever and turn it in the direction that you want the gate to open.

You can install it with a push button on the inside to open it. That's what I did. Yes it automatically locks when you close the gate.

No way. All mechanisms are on the top. You have to slide the lever with your thumb while lifting up on the gate to open it. And it closes automatically and locks. (spend the time setting it up correctly, it makes a big difference).

When you put it together you can choose which side to put the entrance. I hope this helps. ~Tina~

Its setup to open on the left but I'm sure you can configure it to open from the right but it will take some handy carpentry work.

YES, there is a choice, you can assemble it either way. We assembled ours with the door on the left side.
2007873
yes, its possible. This type of gate requires a padlock to lock in place, but its simpley a matter of sticking your arm through an opening. Its not "ideal" but its manageable.

The unit can be installed so that the hinges are on whichever side you want... If you want the hinge on the left side, the door opens from the right and swings out towards the left. If you want it to go the other way, flip the cabinet around 180 degrees and the hinges will be on the right, the door will open from the left side and it will swing open towards the right. The interior is mirrored on the back as well as the sides. A very nice cabinet all in all. However, it is not packed especially well and one of the 3 we purchased came damaged- they were quick to ship out another one though.

Only one way, for safety reasons. For example, if it were placed at the top of the stairs - it would not swing open towards the steps - just in case little miss perfect got lucky and managed to open it. Of course, you can always unscrew it and turn it around to face the other direction if you like. Takes about 2 mins sober. There is no way to tell the difference, other than the direction the gate swings. Good product.
